1. It's Getting Ugly Between Impact Wrestling & The Hardy Boyz

The feud between the Hardy Boyz and Impact Wrestling is less one-sided and infinitely more interesting. It comes to something that the most intriguing feud in wrestling is an accidental byproduct of the former TNA.

This week, Impact Wrestling president Ed Nordholm, already proving himself to be more spiteful than Vince McMahon, leaked both details of Matt Hardy's contract and email exchanges with WWE. The contract stipulates that "any intellectual property created while working for Impact would become their property under a “work for hire” rule," - which might explain why WWE yesterday hastily replaced an image bearing the deranged Hardy with an image of the repaired Hardy within an hour on Twitter.

Hilariously, Nordholm's email signature is an advert for his own company's TV show - "Impact! Live at 8 tonight. Don't miss :)" Even his own internal staff need to be reminded to watch what is probably the least relevant wrestling show on television.

Reby Sky has weighed in on the debate, threatening counter legal action. At least we have no idea how this is all going to end. The Hardy Boyz have crushed Sheamus and Cesaro on television five times.

Which feud are we paying 9.99 to watch?
